Mess

[edit]

What an absolute mess: citing sources that do not support the written data; citing controversial reports from biased organizations using a primary source; and linking criticism of Israel to antisemitism; to name a few issues. Makeandtoss (talk) 16:35, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Makeandtoss and Eladkarmel: Which of the sources in this article do not support the data in the article? Jarble (talk) 20:55, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The 20% claim which I removed. I haven't had the chance to check the article fully, but the example of how this figure was cited to three non-supporting sources, is very worrying to say the least. Makeandtoss (talk) 12:51, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. "River to the sea" is not a genocidal slogan. Opposing zionism is not anti-semetism. The Western biasedness in this article is open to see for everyone. SoloKnowHow83 (talk) 15:22, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unless.. it is a genocidal slogan.
It means destroying Israel and ethnically cleansing all jews that live there, pushing them into the sea. Wiki user name142 (talk) 20:05, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

edit request: Add information regarding the twitch Ban

[edit]

add a section regarding the Twich ban of Israeli Ips:

Twich

In 2024, Twitch, a popular live-streaming platform, faced allegations of antisemitism after disabling sign-ups from Israel for nearly a year. Following the October 7 massacre, the platform stated that it had “temporarily disabled sign-ups with email verification in Israel and Palestine.” Twitch later acknowledged that it had “inadvertently” failed to re-enable email sign-ups for Israeli users, describing it as an “unacceptable miss.”

Wikipedia as a social media or social networking site

[edit]

While our insider story of Wikipedia holds it is not a social media site, in academic studies it is common to analyze Wikipedia as a social media or social networking site. There's info about Wikipedia and antisemitism in an article (though it may be merged elsewhere). Two questions:

  1. What are objections to adding a brief summary of that info here, with a Main article or See also (template) link?
  2. Meanwhile, adding a link to a See also section at the bottom. Discuss here as needed, thanks. ProfGray (talk) 23:24, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
